Offensive Line

I could see the OL starting out next year looking something like this.

Robinson/Howard/Patterson/Tomlinsom/ one of Brown/Fisher/Ersery.

 

I can't imagine getting through training camp without injuries affecting who we play.

 

Offensive line going to be tested early.

Week 1 Rams - Braden Fiske, Jared Verse, Kobie Turner, Byron Young

Week 2 Bucs - Vita Vera, BIG Desmond Watson, Calijah Kancey

Week 3 Jaguars - Josh Hines-Allen, Travon Walker, Arik Armstead

Week 4 Titans - T'Vondre Sweat, Jeffrey Simmons

Week 5 Ravens 31-2

Week 6 Seahawks - Leonard Williams

Week 7 Niners - Joey Bosa, Alfred Collins, Mykel Williams

 

Might as well get used to it. There's no positive from thinking you're better than you are.

 

I think Rams will possibly be the best Dline we face. Unless I'm looking over someone. Crosby and Wilkins will be dangerous in Week 16

 

They are a huge unknown. The scheme will be important, but a completely new and untested line is a bit scary. Bottom line, CJ will either have "more time" or be running for his life.

 

"I'm just happy to see the comradery on that side" may be a telling comment about problems last year.

 

"They Love Ball"

Yep.

 

I know we’re a bit jaded on this ‘body change’ stuff because of useless Kenyon Green, but Kenyon Green issues were between the ears. His body transformation was actually his only positive. So I’m liking that our OLinemen have taken it upon themselves to keep fit and improve physically.

 

Being an NFL player is a YEAR AROUND JOB. It's not part time anymore where you actually get in shape in training camp. Body transformation checks off one box indicating they get it and perhaps a second box showing the discipline to get it done. But they still have to have the talent and the mental skills to use that talent as well.

I'm more hopeful than confident until I see it on the field against good to great opposition (and the discipline against lesser opposition.)
